guys, I recall to all of you that we have a marvellous and very useful button (the one replying the youtube logo -in black- in the posting window)...:evil:

 

with that, you can post a smaller version of the youtube video window and you can also set the exact time of the video you want your segment to start -it doesn't cut the video, just moves the start at the indicated time when you launch it)...;)

Vancouver just beacuse it was about pure emotions, the whole atmosphere around Kumaritashvili´s tragedy was so strong, that I can not forget a single moment from this opening ceremony, the entry of Ge

I love the first 5 minutes of Athens 2004. I’ve had that song/beat stuck in my head all week. Also the rings on fire in water had become such an iconic image.

I really don't pay attention to ceremonies. I do watch them, but they are largely forgotten when the competition starts.

Vancouver 2010, Toronto 2015 (home town games, so how could it not be among your favourites ?). I really liked Turin 2006 as well...

My biggest problem with Toronto 2015 was that it just really lacked a wow moment. I loved the way they made the caldron though

I love the First Nations segment from Vancouver 2010. However the caldron malfunction overshadows that ceremony.

As @bestmen said, you can't like the whole ceremony but mostly just the certain parts.. So here we go:

 

Opening intro: Athens 2004 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qlatmzDXXOg)

 

Anthem: Sydney 2000 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JoZ7QziVSDg

 

Parade of Nations: Beijing 2008 (because the order is so random)

 

Cauldron lighting: Beijing 2008

      @hckošice, even though Tomankova lost, she had a good fight against Costa, I think soon she and Babulfath will be the stars of -48kg.
